Summary for Patent: 7,935,008

Title:	Practice bat system
Abstract:	A striking section includes a planar central portion. The planar central portion has holes. A major striking surface is provided. The striking section also includes a peripheral portion. The peripheral section extends from both sides of the central portion. In this manner spaced parallel thin minor striking surfaces are provided. The peripheral portion has a distal end. The distal end is in a semi circular configuration. The distal end couples the minor striking surfaces. A handle section has a central extent. The central extent is in a generally cylindrical configuration. The central extent has a proximal end and a distal end. The distal end is coupled to the central extent of the handle section and to the proximal end of the peripheral section.

Patent Claims:	1. A practice bat system for improving a player's strength and hand to eye coordination in a safe, simple and convenient manner comprising, in combination: a striking section including a planar central portion in a generally rectilinear configuration with a length of about 18.5 inches and a width of about 2.25 inches and a thickness of about 0.0625 inches adapted to provide a major striking surface on each side of the central portion, the planar central section having 7 holes of equal spacing and a diameter of about 2.25 inches there through for minimizing wind resistance while practice swinging to improve a player's wrist strength and movement, the striking section also including a peripheral portion extending an equal distance from both sides of the central portion to provide spaced parallel thin minor striking surfaces with a length of about 18 inches and a width of about 0.75 inches and a thickness of about 0.0625 inches, the minor striking surfaces, when used with a wiffle ball, being adapted improve a player's hand to eye coordination, the peripheral portion having a distal end in a semi circular configuration coupling the minor striking surfaces, the major striking surface having a width between about 2.5 and 3.5 times the width of the minor striking surface, the minor striking surface being greater than the thickness of the major striking surface; a handle section having a central extent in a generally cylindrical configuration with a diameter of about 0.625 inches and a length of about 11.5 inches, the handle section having a proximal end in a disk shaped configuration with a diameter of about 2 inches and being separably coupled to the central extent, the handle section having a distal end in a trapezoid configuration with a smaller end of the trapezoid coupled to the central extent of the handle section and the larger end of the trapezoid coupled to the proximal end of the peripheral section, the striking section and the handle section being fabricated of aluminum; and a grip fabricated of an elastomeric material selected from the class of elastomeric materials including plastic and rubber, natural and synthetic, and blends thereof, the grip having an interior cylindrical surface for mounting on the handle and an exterior surface for gripping by a user, the exterior surface having a semi-cylindrical region and flat parallel side faces with a flat front face parallel with one of the minor striking surfaces.
